OK, I've studied up like a good boy with Bill's video and searching the archives and I'm still having trouble with the wedge. I have access to my dremel, a ggod assortment of files, and a scrollsaw a friend has lent me. I made a set of scales from 1/8" cocobolo and made a wedge from the same. The wood is just too pretty - anything looks nice in cocobolo. Anyhow, the process I went through with shaping the wedge and getting a good angle was brutal....I had to redo some sanding "hierarchy" on the scales after getting the wedge shaped....it was hard to sand the little wedge to get a slight angle,...it really kicked my butt.

Given my primitive tooling mentioned above, are there some tips to do simple wedges for a newbie razor refurb-man?

Muchos Thanks,
Steve
